These rules became effective August 31, 2001. The Department of Environment, Great Lake, and Energy (EGLE) , Water Division, oversees the Part 5 rules per the DEQ Delegati on Letter WD-01, effective September 15, 2002. Subsequent reorganization resulted in the Part 5 rules being overseen by the DEQ Water Resources Division.
